Transport between Railway station and airport

Hi, what is the quickest way to get from Railway station South to Capital International airport PEK on Sunday on 2nd June. Is traffic easier on Sundays? My train will be arriving at 11.36 and my flight is 16.15. Is it enough time to transfer? Many thanks

Answers (1)

Answered by Jeremy | Feb. 19, 2024 00:41

You can take Metro Line 14 from Beijing South Station to Puhuangyu Station and then transfer to Metro Line 5 to Beixinqiao and then transfer to Airport Express to the Capital airport. The whole journey takes about 1.5 hours and costs CNY 30. Don't worry, the transfer time is enough.

Asked by Sterba from ARGENTINA | Jul. 03, 2020 20:00

I will go to Wuhan next month. Is now a good time?

Is Wuhan OK to visit, and which train do you suggest?

Answers (1)

Answered by Lexi from SINGAPORE | Jul. 04, 2020 23:07

There is no problem to visit Wuhan right now. From Beijing to Wuhan, the high speed trains and the ordinary overnight trains are all available. The high speed takes about 4.5-5.5 hours, while the overnight trains take over 10 hours. If you take latter one, I think the best choice is Z285 21:08/07:48 +1. Train G487 10:52/15:25 and train G527 18:14/ 22:52 takes less time.

Travel to the Tianjin Port to take a cruise ship.

I need to travel from Beijing to the Tianjin Home Cruise Port. My ship is Royal Caribbean port.

I need to know if the "Beijing to Tianjin" train route will go as far south as Tanggu?

Answers (1)

Answered by Jackson | Aug. 20, 2019 19:51

"Tianjin" is not "Tanggu". Tianjin should be the Tianjin station in city center. If you want to go to Tanggu, you need input your destination as "Tanggu" directly.
